I have an investment account question I want to discuss with everyone: Suppose you hold two different cryptocurrencies, one increases by 100% and the other decreases by 50%. In the end, are you making a profit or a loss? It sounds simple, but the underlying mathematical logic is actually crucial for our investment decisions. Can anyone help clarify this calculation or share how this kind of rise and fall combination is handled in actual trading?

It depends on the initial position ratio. If one doubles while the other halves, and the former has a smaller position while the latter has a larger one, it still results in a loss...

Haha, it all depends on the initial position ratio, otherwise what's the point of talking?

Bro, I calculated this question, it all depends on the initial position ratio.

Isn't this just looking at the initial position allocation? If it's a one-to-one ratio, it indeed results in a loss, but who would distribute it so evenly?

It depends on the initial position weight; it's not just simple addition and subtraction.
